Cloonacool 5k 2014 results

The fifth staging of the annual Cloonacool 5km race and walk took place yesterday (Sunday February 16th). The weather turned out to be ideal conditions for the race in which 266 people turned up. One of the keys duels before the race was that of Gus and Pakie, but with the demands and pressure of the race, Pakie never turned up. So not alone does Pakie owe Gus reportly 150 euro but also has to live with the shame of losing to slowest member of team!

The 5km race was won by Anthony Flannnery, Cloncliffe Harriers, in a time of 17.03. Second was Anto Devaney from Mayo AC in a time of 17.07 and third was David Kerins in 17.49. The stand out performance must have come from Eoin Carty who ran the race in 20 minutes flat.
